À propos de cet audio

The author of The Willpower Instinct delivers a controversial and groundbreaking new book that overturns long-held beliefs about stress.

More than 44 percent of Americans admit to losing sleep over stress. And while most of us do everything we can to reduce it, Stanford psychologist and best-selling author Kelly McGonigal, PhD, delivers a startling message: Stress isn't bad. In The Upside of Stress, McGonigal highlights new research indicating that stress can, in fact, make us stronger, smarter, and happier - if we learn how to embrace it.

The Upside of Stress is the first audiobook to bring together cutting-edge discoveries on the correlation between resilience - the human capacity for stress-related growth - and mind-set, the power of beliefs to shape reality. As she did in The Willpower Instinct, McGonigal combines science, stories, and exercises into an engaging and practical book that is both entertaining and life-changing, showing you:

  • How to cultivate a mind-set to embrace stress
  • How stress can provide focus and energy
  • How stress can help people connect and strengthen close relationships
  • Why your brain is built to learn from stress and how to increase its ability to learn from challenging experiences

McGonigal's TED talk on the subject has already received more than seven million views. Her message resonates with people who know they can't eliminate the stress in their lives and want to learn to take advantage of it. The Upside of Stress is not a guide to getting rid of stress but a guide to getting better at stress by understanding it, embracing it, and usng it.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"In this smart, practical book, Kelly McGonigal shows that stress isn't nearly as bad as it reputation. In fact, if we change our mindsets just a bit, we can transform stress from a barrier that thwarts to a resource that propels us. The Upside of Stress is a perfect how-to guide for anyone who wants to tap into the biology of courage and the psychology of thriving under pressure." (Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and To Sell Is Human)
"A fascinating tour of cutting-edge research on how stress affects us in ways, both good and bad, that we never suspect. McGonigal brings scientific studies to life, makes her lessons tangible and provides fascinating take-aways for anyone who experiences stress - which, let's face it, is all of us, often all the time." (Charles Duhigg, MBA, author of The Power of Habit)
"A courageous, counterintuitive, and convincing case for a big idea: stress can be good for you. This enchanting, evidence-based book has already transformed how I think about stress, and I recommend it highly to anyone who lives in the 21st century." (Adam Grant, PhD, Wharton professor and author of Give and Take)

There's always something to learn

I enjoyed the whole book and absolutely loved the last third. I'll carry many of the rethinking methods into my life. A lot of the criticism of the book come from a place that didn't actually understand what the author was trying to show from the research. She isn't saying you should go be traumatized in order to grow nor is she undermining trauma. The research simply shows that seeing the good and the bad allows people to grow and learn from something they can't control.

Highly recommend this book to someone who has an open mind and is willing to change their previous conception of stress.

Really enjoyable. Eye opening information...

I loved this book. The presentation of the material is easy to understand and makes one think twice about what we 'know' about stress. I learned so much from this book and would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the subject.

Great book recommended by my consultant

When I was in deep stress in my previous job and not knowing about it, I talked with a consultant who helped me discover the problem and recommended this book to me when I asked. I was such a optimist person and somehow down the road of life , I forgot about how to look forward, don’t have any goals to strive for any more . I was busy and miserable. Turns out in my mind, I switched my thinking about stress. I thought stress was bad for my health so I decided to avoid it. Then I stopped to get my goals, stop setting up visions and work hard to get them, then the purposeful life became boring and without hope. In this book, you’ll see how I found the root cause of my problem- it was just a simple thought of stress changed in me. Thank you Kelly for writing this book and thank Andy for recommending it to me.

I really like this book, the way author narrates, interesting stories, and a bunch of science proofed research about stress.
